If you weren’t watching Isthmian League football in 94/95, it might be hard to believe that the following actually happened. I assure you it did.

For one season only, the league agreed to an FA trial of ‘kick-ins’.

This little tweak to the laws of the game gave players the option of taking a kick-in instead of a throw-in. The kick was treated as a throw-in. While you couldn’t score directly from it, players could not be offside when receiving the ball.
